Chapter 149: Li Zhangsheng's Promise

A tall and slender middle-aged man, holding a wine gourd, lay quietly on the sofa, waiting for Su Yu.

Su Yu's brow twitched slightly, and then he spoke respectfully.

I don't know why senior has come looking for junior; is there something?

The visitor turned out to be Li Zhangsheng.

Li Zhangsheng glanced at Su Yu, sizing him up.

As expected of the Slay Dragon King's disciple, you do have a bit of grit...

Having said that, Li Zhangsheng sat up straight and spoke solemnly.

I, on behalf of the entire Qianlong Academy, welcome your arrival.

Although the Qianlong Academy is no longer what it once was, I can give you a promise: as long as you remain at the Qianlong Academy for even a day, if anyone within the Human Race dares to move against you, the Qianlong Academy will not let it go unpunished!

Li Zhangsheng said seriously.

If anyone were here hearing Li Zhangsheng's words, they would surely be shocked.

Because, if this statement were made public, it would be enough to stir up a storm throughout Daxia.

The meaning of this statement is that the Qianlong Academy is willing to serve as Su Yu's endorsement!

Once someone wants to target Su Yu, what they will face is the Qianlong Academy's retaliation!

Although the Qianlong Academy is no longer counted among the five great academies, anyone who has come out of it and is still alive is at least a Grand Master-level existence.

Even Marquis-level experts are not few.

As for Kings....

A dead camel is still bigger than a horse; even if Capital Martial wanted to face the Qianlong Academy's retaliation, they would have to think it over repeatedly.

Moreover, the people of the Qianlong Academy are a bunch of lunatics; nobody wants to provoke them.

Unless it is absolutely necessary.

Seeing Li Zhangsheng's so serious expression, Su Yu couldn't help but take a deep breath, his expression gradually becoming solemn.

He bowed deeply to Li Zhangsheng.

Thank you, Teacher!

He changed his address to Li Zhangsheng to 'Teacher'.

This can be considered a full acknowledgment of Li Zhangsheng's words.

Upon hearing that, Li Zhangsheng smiled, then took out from his space ring a series of gleaming, crystal-clear inner pellets.

The Qianlong Academy's resources are all used for its students; you haven't officially joined the academy yet, so you can't get any resources. These are some inner pellets I just seized after coming down from the Myriad Races Battlefield.

As a Grand Master, you can't use these, but the Flying Heaven Realm inner pellets should be tolerable; there are ten of them, take them and use them.

Li Zhangsheng waved his hand, directly placing the ten Flying Heaven Realm inner pellets into Su Yu's hand.

Su Yu was instantly startled.

You know, getting first place in the mock exam only earned me a single Flying Heaven Realm inner pellet.

And Li Zhangsheng directly produced ten.

Teacher, this...

Su Yu hesitated a bit, and Li Zhangsheng then comforted him.

Don't worry, these are just some Flying Heaven Realm inner pellets; I go on a trip to the Myriad Races Battlefield, what resources can't I seize?

At this moment, Su Yu suddenly recalled that this person before him is a fierce individual ranked third on the Daxia Grand Master list, and even there are one or two Marquis-level experts who have died at his hands.

Not to mention the Flying Heaven Realm; a casual wave could cause countless Flying Heaven Realm experts to fall.

At this point, Su Yu finally felt at ease storing the ten Flying Heaven Realm inner pellets into his own space ring.

By the way, the Heavenly Sword King entrusted me to give you this, saying it's a gift from the King of Culture.

Li Zhangsheng took out a space ring and handed it to Su Yu.

King of Culture?

Su Yu was a bit curious.

That is your eldest senior brother.

Li Zhangsheng explained.

Eldest senior brother!

Su Yu's eyes lit up; he felt he had never seen his eldest senior brother before, and didn't expect to receive a meeting gift so soon.

Upon hearing it was from his eldest senior brother, Su Yu had no hesitation and accepted it directly.

Alright, if there's nothing else, I'll leave now; I'll come to Jiangnan Province to pick you up in September.

Li Zhangsheng gave a faint smile, then his figure slightly twisted and disappeared before Su Yu's eyes.

Su Yu watched Li Zhangsheng leave, gave a slight bow, looked at the ten Flying Heaven Realm inner pellets in his hand, and felt warm inside.

After a simple packing, Su Yu came to the hotel entrance, met up with Jiang Shang and others, and prepared to drive back to Jiangnan Province.

The news of the mock exam quickly spread to Jiangnan Province.

In modern society, with developed networks, sometimes before a person even returns, the news has already spread throughout the entire province.

In Hengcheng.

The one-armed old principal sat at the school gate, looking at the news online, smiling so wide he couldn't close his mouth.

Hahaha, as expected of someone from our Yizhong, actually taking first place in the mock exam; this time it's truly allowed Jiangnan Province to shake off its bottom-place reputation.

At that moment, Dong Buwei and Liu Kuang appeared beside the old principal.

What's with all the pretentiousness, old coot, don't forget that Su Yu was my recommendation to join the Heavenly Pride Battalion.

Liu Kuang glared at the old principal, displeased.

However, the old principal acted as if he hadn't heard, and continued to speak on his own.

Tsk tsk tsk, the students who come out of Yizhong are just different.

Looks like the teaching standard of Yizhong isn't bad either!

Yizhong...

In any case, after all the talk, it's just to solidify Su Yu's reputation as a Yizhong student.

Dong Buwei and Liu Kuang beside him were unhappy, but there was nothing they could do; after all, Su Yu really is a Yizhong student.

Jiangnan provincial capital, Martial Artists Association.

Wang Long lay on the recliner, swaying very comfortably.

At that moment, the assistant pushed open the door and looked at Wang Long with a smile.

President, the mock exam results are out.

Wang Long immediately jumped up from the rattan chair.

What place? It shouldn't be last place, right? At the very least we need to surpass East Province and West Province; even third from the bottom I could accept.

Wang Long asked impatiently.

The assistant said with a smile.

President, this time we've really saved face; our Jiangnan Province's total ranking is ninth!

What!

Are you sure you didn't get it wrong? Ninth place? You wouldn't be lying to this old man, would you?

Wang Long was greatly startled, then looked displeased at the assistant.

The assistant was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

Really, President, why would I lie to you? Look, Su Yu got first place in the mock exam, pulling our total score up a tier, naturally making us ninth.

Wang Long stared at the scores on the screen, his cloudy eyes widening instantly.

Holy crap, Su Yu actually got first place!

Wang Long's face was filled entirely with shock.

You have to know, the mock exam gathered all the monsters from the southern region, and yet under such difficult circumstances he still managed to get first place.

If this result hadn't come from the Martial Artists Association's official website, Wang Long would have thought it was fake.

Instantly, Wang Long burst out laughing.

Hahaha, I said it, with Su Yu around, Jiangnan Province can't go wrong.

Hahaha ninth place, I'll immediately go to East Province and West Province to properly mock those two old fogies.

They always criticize me; today I'll criticize them back!

Having said that, Wang Long hurriedly left.

Only the assistant remained, standing helplessly in place.
